<p>
An instance of this object defines the interface between SQLite
and low-level memory allocation routines.</p>
<p>This object is used in only one place in the SQLite interface.
A pointer to an instance of this object is the argument to
<a href="../c3ref/config.html">sqlite3_config()</a> when the configuration option is
<a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigmalloc">SQLITE_CONFIG_MALLOC</a> or <a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfiggetmalloc">SQLITE_CONFIG_GETMALLOC</a>.
By creating an instance of this object
and passing it to <a href="../c3ref/config.html">sqlite3_config</a>(<a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigmalloc">SQLITE_CONFIG_MALLOC</a>)
during configuration, an application can specify an alternative
memory allocation subsystem for SQLite to use for all of its
dynamic memory needs.</p>
<p>Note that SQLite comes with several <a href="../malloc.html#altalloc">built-in memory allocators</a>
that are perfectly adequate for the overwhelming majority of applications
and that this object is only useful to a tiny minority of applications
with specialized memory allocation requirements. This object is
also used during testing of SQLite in order to specify an alternative
memory allocator that simulates memory out-of-memory conditions in
order to verify that SQLite recovers gracefully from such
conditions.</p>
<p>The xMalloc, xRealloc, and xFree methods must work like the
malloc(), realloc() and free() functions from the standard C library.
SQLite guarantees that the second argument to
xRealloc is always a value returned by a prior call to xRoundup.</p>
<p>xSize should return the allocated size of a memory allocation
previously obtained from xMalloc or xRealloc. The allocated size
is always at least as big as the requested size but may be larger.</p>
<p>The xRoundup method returns what would be the allocated size of
a memory allocation given a particular requested size. Most memory
allocators round up memory allocations at least to the next multiple
of 8. Some allocators round up to a larger multiple or to a power of 2.
Every memory allocation request coming in through <a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_malloc()</a>
or <a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_realloc()</a> first calls xRoundup. If xRoundup returns 0,
that causes the corresponding memory allocation to fail.</p>
<p>The xInit method initializes the memory allocator. For example,
it might allocate any required mutexes or initialize internal data
structures. The xShutdown method is invoked (indirectly) by
<a href="../c3ref/initialize.html">sqlite3_shutdown()</a> and should deallocate any resources acquired
by xInit. The pAppData pointer is used as the only parameter to
xInit and xShutdown.</p>
<p>SQLite holds the <a href="../c3ref/c_mutex_fast.html">SQLITE_MUTEX_STATIC_MAIN</a> mutex when it invokes
the xInit method, so the xInit method need not be threadsafe. The
xShutdown method is only called from <a href="../c3ref/initialize.html">sqlite3_shutdown()</a> so it does
not need to be threadsafe either. For all other methods, SQLite
holds the <a href="../c3ref/c_mutex_fast.html">SQLITE_MUTEX_STATIC_MEM</a> mutex as long as the
<a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigmemstatus">SQLITE_CONFIG_MEMSTATUS</a> configuration option is turned on (which
it is by default) and so the methods are automatically serialized.
However, if <a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigmemstatus">SQLITE_CONFIG_MEMSTATUS</a> is disabled, then the other
methods must be threadsafe or else make their own arrangements for
serialization.</p>
<p>SQLite will never invoke xInit() more than once without an intervening
call to xShutdown().
